The statement comes in response to criticism leveled at Trump for his remarks in the hours after violent clashes in Virginia on Saturday.

Trump didn't single out any group, but blamed "many sides" for the violence.

Some Republicans and Democrats are critical of Trump for not specifically singling out the hate groups that sparked the violent protests that rocked Charlottesville.

Vice President Mike Pence again responded to the violence during a march by white supremacists in Charlottesville, Virginia. On Sunday he said "these dangerous fringe groups" have no place in American public life.

Pence was asked about the violent clashes this weekend in the Virginia college town as he spoke Sunday during a news conference in Cartagena, Colombia.

On Sunday Pence said, "We have no tolerance for hate and violence, white supremacists or neo-Nazis or the KKK."
